Beyond basics: async, type hints, packaging, and production Python
Advanced Python goes beyond scripting to production-grade development: type hints with mypy, async programming with asyncio, package management with uv/poetry, testing with pytest, and frameworks like FastAPI. Python's dominance in AI/ML, data engineering, and backend development makes advanced skills highly valuable. Understanding Python internals (GIL, memory management), metaprogramming, and performance optimization separates senior developers from juniors.
